This summer I'd like to read a few new releases, some older titles, at least one classic, and a YA title or two. All of the books listed are already on hold at the library, currently on my kindle, or waiting on my bookshelves.
I know all too well that one used book sale, kindle daily deal, or impulse purchase could derail the whole plan.
The Vacationers by Emma Straub
Borrowed from the library, up next
The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry by Gabrielle Zevin
Bloggers love this one, on the library hold list
Summer House with Swimming Pool by Herman Koch
I was pretty impressed with The Dinner, so put this on hold.
Ship of Brides by Jojo Moyes,
An older title to be released in paperback in the US this fall (via Netgalley)
The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
...because I seriously don't want to be the last person in the world to read it
Imperial Woman by Pearl S. Buck
a favorite author and my summer classic
The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt
I loved The Secret History. This one is so long, it may be a good read/listen combination.
The All of It by Jeannette Haein
a 1986 classic with an introduction by Ann Patchett
Abide with Me by Elizabeth Strout
a backlist title from a favorite author
The Sweet Life in Paris by David Lebovitz
...or some other foodie title with recipes (preferably set in France) for my book club
